Topic: What are some things you should always avoid while gambling ? - page 3. (Read 1956 times)

I will never get tired of saying and suggesting that you should never get your hopes up, especially not with excessive levels of victory, something that you see as tempting is basically nothing more than a temptation that will trap you to be carried away further. You need to be strict in applying some self-control and boundaries as well as being fully aware when the session is already underway, because sometimes even though you have prepared in advance it is always inevitable that you will forget all your precautions when something that looks tempting you find there so you try to take advantage of the situation and end up regretting that it turned out to be a trap.

Awareness and understanding of the possible risks plays a very important role in safety because it prevents you from taking some out-of-control actions that can certainly make you disappointed at the end of the session such as greed for something much bigger.

Self-control is the key, in my opinion there are many things that must be avoided when gambling, where the things that must be avoided can trigger addiction, with self-control or good discipline it is possible for us to avoid addiction, don't put high hopes on it. Because gambling will only make us addicted sooner or later, don't be easily tempted or provoked by things called winning, because that will only make us fall further into gambling and make us addicted.

Don't borrow money to gamble because it could cause us difficulties in the future, not to mention the interest which will increase as time goes by. The point is that self-control and discipline are the key, because many gamblers are addicted because they don't have strong self-control, which makes them addicted, and if they are addicted to gambling, of course they will lose a lot of things, including money, the main thing is that they will experience difficulties and this can spread. to other things.

That is why we should not gamble when we are not in a good mood because it can trigger us to gamble excessively. In conditions like that, we should rest or sleep and not gamble because it can trigger our emotions, especially when we lose. Excessive gambling is something that many gamblers have experienced, and they often forget the limits of gambling so that instead of reducing their gambling activities, they are even more eager to continue gambling even when they have experienced a losing streak.

Seeing other people's results is okay as long as we have no intention of trying to continue gambling because we also want to get the same results. We must remember that when playing gambling, we will never get the same results, and even the number of losses will not be the same. If we cannot control ourselves, we will only experience more losses.

Setting low limits is a good approach, but it will only work for a short time. Why? As it only treats the sign and not the cause. We need to look further. Problems with gaming are often caused by things that happen in the mind or emotions. To really become disciplined, you need to know what sets you off.

Then there's the matter of making habits. Discipline isnt just about keeping things in check; its also about making better habits. Not only should you set limits, but you should also actively look for healthier ways to meet the same goals. Could hobbies, sports, or social events take the place of gaming as a thrill?

 I believe in the power of community. Sharing your struggles and successes with people who are going through the same things can be very empowering. You might want to join forums or groups where people share their stories and tips. Individual discipline isnt enough; everyone needs to work together to learn and help each other.

Exactly, you should have your own knowledge and not just to look for other's success and try your luck, if you do so then the money that you
are risking will somehow disappear and you will become desperate.

Having knowledge also gives you that control and limitation, most of the time, without that proper understanding you just leading yourself to addiction.

being desperate to make money or to win from gambling makes you more aggressive to the point that you are doing it without thinking
or caring about your finances.

It all depends on what we are capable of doing, there are people that loves drinking and gambling at the same time. We need to make sure that we know what we are doing so that we  fall victim at anytime. We need to make sure that we gamble on games that we are sure of and can make winnings from them. Over gambling is something we need to be aware and we should not look because we see other people's winning then that would make us to become desperate. Looking at other people's results is one thing we need to stop so it doesn't affect us to become desperate.

Discipline is like any other desirable skill, you can train it and if you do so constantly then you will be able to use it on command, for those that cannot control their gambling on some occasions and they are unhappy about it the easiest way to do this is by setting some very low limits on the amount and time they are willing to gamble, those limits need to be so low that they can reach them in a matter of minutes and then they need to stop gambling as soon as those limits are reached and they need to stay away from gambling for a few days as well, and if they can do this for a month I really think this will be enough for them to gain way more confidence on their ability to control themselves.

The most of the gamblers use to drink while playing the game,because they feel satisfied to drink at the time of game playing.The gamblers who play with the drink may leads to loss who become the half man by the drugs.But some gamblers get boosted mind by the drinks will start to play the gambling with more energetic game.This was the reason,they keep the habit of playing the game along with drinking.I had come across many gamblers who had this as the habit to play the game.But some drinking gamblers don’t have the habit of drinking at the time of playing the gambling,because they don’t want to risk of losing their money by random bet at the time of drinking.The gamblers also should not play with the sleeping mind set,this leads to the gambling loss.

It depends on what gambling games you are playin since game like slot games is a no brainer game which you can play even if you are blindfolded or sleeping through the use of auto spin. Auto spin on slot games has different option now that let you control your spins on given condition set.

On this kind of luck based game, Drinking some alcohol will not gonna give a handicap unless you will bet all-in because you are just watching and waiting for the result when playing this kind of game unlike poker games that requires you to think to win the game.

Drinking and betting is like blindfolded fire juggling!  Simple. Alcohol impairs brain decision-making. No longer playing, the game plays you. People chase losses or wager big on high-risk bets. A classic disaster recipe.

I love the thrill of gambling, the adrenaline rush, and the heart-pounding exhilaration. Fun, after all! Keep it clever. Drinking and gambling? That's foolish - giving Lady Luck your pocketbook and saying, Go crazy! Be smart when gambling online or at the casino. Gamble wisely and for fun, but don't drink until the games are over. You play wisely and keep the excitement alive that way!

Yes, as much as possible, never gamble under the influence of alcohol, why is that because there are many examples like that, many people unconsciously spend all their money on gambling because they follow their emotions which do not peak when gambling, when they are aware of the influence of alcohol they will usually realize that they have spent everything his money was in gambling, obviously it was a very stupid act.

I'm someone who sometimes likes to drink alcohol but I'm not stupid like a gambler, at least I know when to drink alcohol and what to do, usually I drink alcohol in the cold season to just warm up the atmosphere drinking alcohol but when gambling drinking alcohol is a strange action in my opinion unless you have finished gambling.

I fully agree with you, we should never be gambling at our job. The risk is just way to high that a colleague or our boss will find out about our other activities and we will have negative consequences at work. At my company we are not allowed to even check social media from our work laptops. There is some websites being blocked and there is also some checking on the internet history by the IT department from time to time. In case you really want to gamble during a long day at work, you should limit it down to your breaks at least. And even it then it seems not right, to just gamble for 10 minutes before going back to work. Why not wait to finish work and relax in the evening where we have more time and don’t face nay issues. For me the number rule of gambling is always going to be: Only use money that you can afford to lose.

It is not about that if you don't like your boss or your employer, you will do other stuff like gambling but remember that you have been paid to work, not to gamble. If you don't like then why not leave rather than do another thing when you are not told to do so? As a worker, you know your responsibility as well and gambling while working is really not a good idea. Just put yourself like the owner or even just the manager, how would you feel seeing any of your workers gambling while at office hours? There is a right place and time for that, why not do it after office hours?

Someone who's in the influence of alcohol will lose his patience, focus and right mental state of mind.

And when you're on that condition, you're going to do things that you might even question when you come back to your sense. That's why too many incidents like this not just in gambling but also in other things that it is not a right thing to do when you're under in the influence of it.

It's better to keep yourself away from either gambling or alcoholic drinks.

As much as agree that you should follow this, I don't think that you owe your employer especially a bad one all your working hours to just working for the company, if you have the opportunity to have fun or do other stuff in your company, it's a good idea to grab that opportunity, maybe if that employer is one of the best and that person is a leader and not a boss and the pay and the benefits is really good then I would gladly devote that hours to only just work but otherwise, I don't think so. Y'all are a slave to your companies if you don't do this or other stuff when you have the opportunity, that's my take on this prohibition.

You are right, friend, everything you say should be avoided by gamblers who are not in a good state, not sober or sad, someone who is drunk doesn't realize how much money they have spent on gambling. They only realize that they are no longer drunk and this is what will happen. causes a person to lose a lot of money and self-control because a drunkard is more likely to have no self-control when gambling.
Someone who is heartbroken about their partner or is sad about their situation, they will also do things that are beyond reason, they will be desperate to use any amount of money to forget the problem because people who are experiencing a situation like this usually cannot think clearly, they feel they need entertainment for forget about the problem but sometimes this situation gets worse if they experience a big loss and they end up getting worse and worse with the situation so it's true that they should avoid gambling if a situation like this is better the money for to go to a meal with friends or holiday so they can forget about the problem to for a moment and they also felt entertained.
Meanwhile, gambling with loans is true, it will destroy someone's life because gambling is not a place to make a profit. If you borrow money and cannot pay it back, you will lose all the assets you have to pay off the debt.

I also agree with what you say, because betting annoyingly is a very bad thing, we want to win no matter what and if we don't win, the reaction we are going to have will be worse, it is better not to combine reactions because it is a very bad idea, in general The game has to be bet in a good mood because if you lose often you won't get bitter, but it is something that can be very nice to keep in mind when you are going to play. When I play I do it a little tired, but sometimes when I play Well, sometimes I fall asleep and make too many moves, and I don't like that.

That's why when I start thinking about what we can do in a casino, good humor above all is what should be focused on, I don't see any other way out, it's better this way and it can be the best solution for everything, I have always seen That the best attitude calls for positive things and that works in the casinos and in the game that is played , to play poker I need to Concentrate a lot.

Do not gamble when you're pissed off. This is going to make you lose your money easily and your anger will make it seem to be more important than losing your money.

We're all like that.

We just leave it there as long as our anger is released and we put that with our bets and when we see that they're not doing good, it's fine. We just released that anger and in return, we lost the bet because of not having that thought of what's the right thing to do.

Not just in bet or might be in slots or dices.

always advisable to gamble when you have clear mind and clear goals to begin with. because if you are not sober, sure you are still aware of what's going on but you have no direction with your games or no control of yourself. so you need to contain first yourself, else, more trouble will be on your way.

and if you are depressed entering or logging inside the casino, the tendency is to follow your desires as you feel it will do good on your state of mind. but it may detrimental to your funds as you are losing the grasp of reality. so better calm yourself, meditate and have clear direction before you start your games.

and as already mentioned many times above, don't borrow money especially from loan sharks just to supply your gambling activities. you are just digging your grave early. do yourself a favour on this one. and you will be grateful with yourself if you overcome such desire of taking out a loan.
